Fishing

Bowls are obtainable through fishing, with a 1% chance per attempt. See fishing for more details.

Eating

A bowl containing food (see below) becomes an empty bowl when the food is eaten.

Usage

Crafting ingredient

Name	Ingredients	Crafting recipe
Beetroot Soup	Beetroot +
Mushroom Stew	Red Mushroom + Brown Mushroom +
Rabbit Stew	Cooked Rabbit + Carrot + Baked Potato + Any Mushroom +
Suspicious Stew	Red Mushroom + Brown Mushroom +  + Any Small Flower

Mooshrooms

Using a bowl on a red mooshroom or brown mooshroom turns the bowl into mushroom stew or suspicious stew, respectively. The stew can then be consumed immediately and the process repeated, making this an excellent way to quickly restore depleted hunger and saturation with almost no cost or effort.

Fuel

Bowls can be used as a fuel in furnaces, smelting 0.5 items per bowl in Java Edition, and 1 item per bowl in Bedrock Edition.

Trivia

• in Bedrock Edition, bowls are actually more fuel efficient than sticks. If 6 wood planks are crafted into 8 bowls, 8 items can be smelted; but if those are crafted into 12 sticks, only 6 items can be smelted. This can be useful when the player only has access to Nether wood types, which cannot be used as fuel.
